Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When dawn breaks, see it in your eyes
This seems fake, superheroes disguise
When dawn breaks, see it in your eyes
This seems fake, superheroes disguise
When dawn breaks, see it in you eyes
This seems fake, superheroes disguise
When dawn breaks, see it in your eyes
This seems fake, superheroes disguise

You can go to sleep now, baby
I've got the world outside
You can go to sleep now, girl
I've got the world outside
You can go to sleep now, baby
I've got the world outside
You can go to sleep now, girl
I've got the world outside

You can go to sleep now, baby
I've got the world outside
You can go to sleep now, girl
I've got the world outside
Cause I'm sleeping but you're still awake
Cause I'm sleeping but you're still awake
Cause I'm sleeping but you're still awake
Cause I'm sleeping but you're still awake

I'm sleeping but you're still awake
I'm sleeping but you're still awake
I'm sleeping but you're still awake
I'm sleeping but you're still awake




I'm sleeping but you're still awake
I'm sleeping but you're still awake

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Superheroes" by You Love Her Coz She's Dead seem to explore the theme of escapism and the idea of superheroes representing a way of hiding one's true identity. The opening lines, "When dawn breaks, see it in your eyes / This seems fake, superheroes disguise" suggests that the singer is aware of the facade that superheroes present to the public, and that perhaps they themselves also struggle with presenting a certain image to the world. This idea is reinforced by the repetition of the line "This seems fake, superheroes disguise" throughout the song.


The chorus of "You can go to sleep now, baby / I've got the world outside / You can go to sleep now, girl / I've got the world outside" could be interpreted as the singer telling their partner that they will take on the burden of the outside world so that they can rest and escape reality for a while. However, the second half of the chorus, "Cause I'm sleeping but you're still awake" suggests that even though the singer may be trying to create a safe space for their partner, they themselves may not be able to fully escape the struggles of the world.


Overall, the song's lyrics seem to deal with the complex emotions surrounding the idea of hiding one's true self and finding comfort in escapism, while also acknowledging the difficulties of fully disconnecting from reality.

This band isn't related to Crystal Castles but they both play a genre of music called electroclash. Kap Bambino and Does It Offend You, Yeah? are some other similar groups.
